Panorama synthesis processing of a plurality of image data

摘要

This invention is an image processing apparatus for generating graphics data representing a single seamless planar image synthesized from a multiple sets of graphics data contained in a plurality of graphics files. Each of the plurality of graphics files contains graphics data composed of a multiplicity of planar pixels arrayed in a plane to create a planar image. This image processing apparatus establishes a spheroidal or cylindrical projection plane for synthesis of the multiple sets of graphics data.
